Product details
Overview
AH1807-P-A from Diodes Incorporated is a medium-sensitivity, micropower omnipolar Hall-effect switch IC in SIP-3L package. It operates from 2.5V to 5.5V, consumes only 8–16 µA average supply current at 3V, and switches its open-drain output on with either North or South magnetic pole - enabling tamper detection in smart electricity meters.
For engineers reviewing the AH1807-P-A datasheet, AH1807-P-A pinout, AH1807-P-A application, or AH1807-P-A equivalent, this device is selected for ultra-low-power, high-temperature industrial sensing where magnetic polarity independence and chopper-stabilized thermal stability are required.
Technical Context
The AH1807 uses dual Hall plates and chopper stabilization to cancel offset drift, achieving ±15 Gauss operate point tolerance over −40°C to +125°C and <15 mV output on-voltage at 1 mA sink. Its sleep/awake architecture delivers 5–28 µA sleep current and 125 µs wake time.
Magnetic switching thresholds are bipolar and symmetric: Bop = ±60–115 Gauss, Brp = ±40–100 Gauss, with 5–20 Gauss hysteresis. The single open-drain output requires external pull-up and supports up to 2.5 mA sink current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.5V to 5.5V - enables direct use with Li-ion, 3.3V, and 5V rails without regulation |
| Average Supply Current | 8–40 µA - ensures multi-year battery life in meter tamper detection |
| Output Type | Open-drain - allows flexible voltage-level interfacing and wired-OR configuration |
| Operate Point (Bop) | ±60–115 Gauss - supports reliable actuation with low-strength magnets at distance |
| Temperature Range | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for outdoor smart meter and industrial enclosure environments |
| Hysteresis (Bhy) | 5–20 Gauss - prevents chatter near threshold in noisy mechanical systems |
| ESD Rating | 6 kV HBM - withstands handling and field electrostatic discharge without protection circuitry |
Pinout & Package
Package: SIP-3L - 3-pin single-inline package with straight leads, 4.1 mm body length, 3.0 mm width, and 2.54 mm lead pitch; RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, green-qualified.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VDD | Positive supply input - must be decoupled with 10–100 nF capacitor for noise immunity |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference - shared return path for supply and output load |
| 3 | OUTPUT | Open-drain output - sinks up to 2.5 mA; requires external pull-up resistor (10–100 kΩ) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Omnipolar magnetic sensitivity | Detects both North and South poles - eliminates magnet orientation dependency in assembly |
| Chopper-stabilized architecture | Reduces temperature-induced offset drift to <±0.5 mV/°C - maintains stable Bop across full range |
| Micropower sleep mode | 5–28 µA quiescent current - extends battery life in always-on meter tamper monitoring |
| High ESD immunity | 6 kV HBM rating - survives factory handling and field installation without added protection |
| RF noise immunity | Validated against common industrial RF sources - avoids false triggers in electrically noisy meter cabinets |
Applications
| Smart Electricity Meter Tamper Detection | Industrial Door/Tray Position Sensing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar omnipolar Hall-effect switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ALLEGRO A3212LLHLT-T | Higher sensitivity (Bop = ±25 Gauss), 5V-only supply, SOT-23 package | Better for weak-field or short-gap sensing; not rated for >85°C continuous operation | Select when magnet gap is <2 mm and ambient stays below 85°C; avoid for smart meter outdoor deployment |
| MELEXIS US5881LUA-ABA-000-RE | Lower power (3 µA avg), but narrower VDD range (2.7–5.5V); SIP-3L compatible | Superior battery life in coin-cell devices; slightly reduced ESD (4 kV HBM) and no 125°C rating | Prefer for portable handheld meters; verify ESD robustness if installed in high-static environments |
Compared with A3212LLHLT-T and US5881LUA-ABA-000-RE, AH1807-P-A uniquely balances 125°C operation, 6 kV ESD, and SIP-3L compatibility - making it the only choice for long-lifecycle, high-temperature, and high-reliability smart meter tamper detection.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended pull-up resistor value for the AH1807-P-A open-drain output?
The datasheet specifies a recommended pull-up range of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ. At 100 kΩ, the output rise time remains under 1 µs with typical capacitive loading, preserving fast edge response for MCU interrupt inputs. Higher values increase susceptibility to noise and slow switching, especially in high-humidity or EMI-prone environments like meter cabinets.
Can AH1807-P-A operate reliably at 125°C junction temperature?
Yes - the device is fully specified and tested for continuous operation from −40°C to +125°C ambient, with thermal derating curves confirming 230 mW power dissipation capability at 25°C and linear reduction to zero at 150°C. No external heatsinking is required in SIP-3L mounting per standard JEDEC PCB footprints.
Does AH1807-P-A require an external bypass capacitor?
Yes - a 10 nF to 100 nF ceramic capacitor between VDD and GND is mandatory per the datasheet to stabilize supply during internal sampling cycles and suppress RF noise. Omission causes erratic switching, increased IDD(avg), and failure to meet specified hysteresis and operate point accuracy.
Is the SIP-3L package of AH1807-P-A compatible with automated pick-and-place assembly?
Yes - the SIP-3L variant (P-A suffix) uses straight leads with 2.54 mm pitch and conforms to IPC-7351B footprint standards. Land pattern dimensions match Diodes' AP02001 recommended pad layout, supporting 0.1 mm placement accuracy and standard reflow profiles including lead-free SAC305.
